Going to college at 16?
While your other concerns about skipping a grade are things that you may want to think more thoroughly about, I would take this one concern off your plate. Our dd, too, will be in the spot of starting college shortly before her 17th bd. Some of the better advice we got when making the decision to skip her, though, was that we should consider what was in her best interests right now and not try to look at what might be the best in the future. None of us has a crystal ball that would allow us to see how this is all going to play out in the long run.
